TMZ Sports has obtained court documents filed by the man who claims he’s being stalked by Ray Allen — and he believes the NBA star is out to kill him.
In the docs, Coleman claims Allen called him on the phone on Sept. 9 — after their alleged 3-year relationship had ended — and said he wanted to “ensure that I went away and never opened my mouth again.”
“He said he wanted me to get what I deserved.”
Coleman says Allen has “repeatedly spied on me by sending his associates to follow me in my community.” One incident allegedly took place in a Publix market on Oct. 10 where Coleman says a man approached him and told him to “watch your back.”Coleman also claims he received a phone call from someone threatening to strangle him — and he believes the caller was Ray Allen.
Allen’s attorney, David Markus, fired back at Coleman a “deranged individual” while denying the man’s latest allegations.
“As with everything else related to Briant or Bryant Coleman, his petition for a restraining order was filled with lies, falsehoods and fantasies,” Markus told TMZ. “He is a seriously deranged individual who Ray Allen has never met, never spoken with directly or threatened in any way. Coleman is the stalker here who is obsessed with Ray.”
